Backstory:

                       The idea was to write a song for George Strait that might reflect where he is in his career right now and what he might want to say eventually to thank everyone who loves him.....  

Thanks for listening,
Dave

ADIOS GOODBYE FAIRWELL         

   words & music by
       David Barker

V1: 
It's not about me drinkin' whiskey anymore
or singin' all those sad songs nobody sings no more
I'd better while I'm able show myself to the door
ADIOS GOODBYE FAIRWELL   

V2:
Don't need more fame and fortune, I've had all that I can stand
Million miles of memories with the boys in the band
We played our brand of music all those nights across the land
ADIOS GOODBYE FAIRWELL   


CH:
You've been a witness to the greatest moments of my life 
Selling all those records and I've made' the young girls cry 
Me in all my glory I can hold my head up high
I'd do it all over again

V3:
There was a time I heard my songs on country radio
The ending of an era has come and gone ya know
I'll take my final bow now it's time to end this show
ADIOS GOODBYE FAIRWELL   

CH:
You've been a witness to the greatest moments of my life 
Thank you all from me my children and my wife
They'll draw that final curtain as the stage lights fade to blue
I couldn't have done it without you

V4
So it's not about me drinkin' whiskey anymore
I'd better while I'm able show myself to the door
Lookin' back with no regrets who could of asked for more
ADIOS GOODBYE FAIRWELL   
ADIOS GOODBYE FAIRWELL........
